Example sentences for: ros
How can you use “ros” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
We suggest that one mechanism by which TNFα induces CLENDO cell death is through the formation of ROS, a result that may stem from depletion of GSH stores in CLENDO cells.
A number of studies provide evidence that the luteolytic process may involve a rapid and sustained increase in ROS [ 58 59 ] . Other studies demonstrate that luteal regression is associated with a dramatic decrease in the mRNAs encoding enzymes responsible for regulating the intracellular redox state [ 60 ] . Death induced by TNFα is also reportedly mediated by an increase in ROS, an event correlated with a marked decrease in the vital intracellular ROS scavenger GSH.
Abscisic acid response elements (ABREs) are important during the plant's response to abiotic stresses such as dehydration, salinity and cold, all of which are ABA-mediated [ 82 83 ] . There is evidence that ROS are involved in ABA signaling [ 84 ] . The enrichment of the ABRE motif in the promoter sequences of the genes in the stress cDNA collection may reflect crosstalk among stress signaling pathways mediated by common second messengers, such as H 2 O 2 . The over-representation of the SA-inducible element in the promoter sequences of the genes in the stress cDNA collection, especially those in the SA library, further validates the enrichment of the stressor-specific genes using the SSH technique and suggests that these genes may be regulated by the changes in the levels of SA that occurs in stress responses [ 85 ] .
Although the mechanism(s) by which cytokines induce apoptosis vary among cell types, it is presumed that it involves either an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) or activation of stress-related signaling pathways.
These findings lend support to the notion that TNFα contributes to luteolysis by initiating formation of endothelial cell-derived ROS.
